[QUOTE="brentc, post: 933676, member: 16938"] Define short range. If by definition you mean that consistent hits on an MOA sized target at 1120 yards with berger 180s out of a 9 twist 7RM at 500 ASL is good short range performance I'd say you've made a valid point. I don't agree with a lot of what you said in your post mostly because I know different. That 1 in 9.5 will absolutely stabilize 168 VLDs and there is absolutely no reason you can't use powders slower than the 4831s. H1000 and Retumbo are extremely well documented powders for producing animal dropping loads at ranges most guys dream of shooting. For the OP a known performance combo is if you take a bag of fresh Winchester cases, prime them with a CCI 250, drop 70.7 grains of H1000 +/- a tenth and seat a 168 VLD to touch the lands you'll have a 1/2 MOA capable load that runs approximately 3025 fps.
